On the blog today, Meri talks about her greatest critic, how it feels to be constantly bitched at and undermined and how she is going to get rid of this person. readmeri.wordpress.com/2020/01/22/being-bullied/

I hope I am not boring you with hummingbird images from my garden. It's such a joy to see them drinking from my feeders, eating small insects in flight, or picking spiders out of their webs. I wish they didn't fight as much as they do. I had no idea hummingbirds can be so aggressive and territorial. ʘ‿ʘ

This particular little one that I often encounter is a bully; she absolutely won't allow anybody near the feeders. I believe she has her own nest, and she takes the protection of her breeding and feeding territory very seriously. She would make disproportionately loud noises, warning visiting hummingbirds that the feeders and territory are taken. And she dives at, attacks, and chases off incoming hummingbirds. One feeder all to herself was not enough, she didn't let anybody near the second blue glass feeder as well.

I had no choice but to add more feeders so she won't fight. I just installed them this morning. Let's wait and see how this goes.

So go on, use me up

Every line you cross is another one to bear the D down

I like it when you play too rough"

He won some fights, lost others - and fortunately he survived the most important one...

The Mockingbird is the bully of the yard.

A lovely male Bullfinch grabbing his share of the berries

I watched this Mockingbird harass this Hawk for several minutes before the Hawk finally left his perch. The Mockingbird is relentless whenever another bird gets on this pole. He is our resident bully!

I think he got tired of the talk of Hair Fair and Skin Fair - or something. Bully tactics or what? ;)

Thanks to the ever sexy Orion and La for the shoot <3

Noisy backyard bully

I really enjoy having these beautiful birds in backyard in Chester County, PA, even though they are very noisy and often monopolize the feeder.

VW Bus in Ludwigsburg

This is Mr. Bully, an aggressive Robin. He bullies all the little birds driving them off the bird table, even the blackbird gets pushed off but then he came up against the squirrel who was having none of it! Always good to see a bully getting a taste of their own medicine 😄

The real world of wildlife is not always sweet and kind. This Bully Wood Stork is claiming his territory by clamping onto the neck of the smaller stork and lifting it out of the water. This went on for a few brief seconds with not apparent injury. This behavior was witnessed in the 10,000 Islands Sanctuary in SW Florida.

Out at the observatory at Rostherne yesterday. Sadly this little fella has got bumblefoot, a mite that eats under the skin and unfortunately usually fatal. Seen it in Chaffinches before but never in Bullfinches.

One of my furgrandchildren, Rhiannon, romping and playing in the snow last March. You can see how happy she was!! We were all in bliss actually :) The snow was falling pretty hard at this point!! Since we rarely have snow, I forgot my camera has a setting to take pictures in the snow...sigh.
